The true spirit of America.
At a candlelight vigil, the Virginia Tech community begins the healing process.
During the vigil, Trey Perkins spoke with CNN's Paula Zahn:
ZAHN: How is it that your life was spared? How were you able to get away?
PERKINS: I have no idea. I mean, I think it's by grace of God. I just lay down. I put a couple desks on their side. I just laid there and thought about my family, prayed and just hoped that he would leave.
ZAHN: Then you see this response here tonight. As a student here, what does that mean to you?
PERKINS: It's incredible. I mean, I knew it would be like this just because this community and how close everyone is. And how supportive we are of each other as Hokies.
